Message	I replaced the transmission fluid in my Z with MT-90 when it had about 15,000 original miles. The transmission started making a whining noise almost immediately afterwards. I switched back to OEM Nissan fluid within a few hundred miles, but the noise never went away. Now I am torn between buying a new transmission or just selling the car since the transmission annoys me every time I drive it. That being said, I have used it in several other Z's prior to this incident, as well as other cars without issue. 1991 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 1993 Mazda RX-7 R1 2001 Audi S4 2002 BMW M3
